...Kingdom, is this a genuine agency? I had a few days back applied to this job opening via monsterjobs.com. I was supposed to contact a Delhi based mobile number, (+91 9582785287..and the person who answered it was, i guess, a Filipino.. it was his accent that give it away). They gave me their company email address ([email protected] ) to send my resume/work details to and told me that the company would get in touch with me.
This is the reply I got from them today morning. Wanted to know if this is a fake cruise company or is it genuine. Attached below is the email that i received from them, kindly let me know if this is a fake or not.

Few things that i found rather boggling were :
1) the email address they mentioned has the domain name ".co.uk.pn" .. thats the domain name for websites based on the Pitcairn islands located near the Philippines ( this adds up to the fact that it was actually a Filipino who had answered my call when i had called up the delhi based no. )
2) It mentions about a life insurance/sailing permit. I tried googling that but ended up as a dud. Couldnt understand that.
3) Far too many grammatical mistakes and general butchering of the "queens english"..lol.. in their mail , which kinda makes me wonder if this is actually a cruise company thats based in the UK.
4) Salary of nearly 4000 GBP with a weekly allowance of 300 GBP. This sounds to be too good to be true, given the financial pickle that the GB is currently in ( with all due respect )
Kindly let me know if this is actually a genuine cruise company or should i just ignore it as some kinda bad-ass-joke.
Regards,
Jayesh
